| Daniel Naas and Abbye Allan talk to visiting students at the Little Fine Arts Library |
Partnering with the UK chapter of College Mentors for Kids, the Little Fine Arts Library and
Learning Center is in the process of hosting several groups of elementary school students. Little
Library faculty and staff Abbye Allan,
Kerri Baunach, Michael Brewster, Daniel
Naas, and Library Director Paula
Hickner collaborated to create a student experience including: a craft
activity; a presentation of songs and videos; and a hands-on showcase of
artists’ books, music facsimiles, and other items from the Little
Library collections. The staff talked about their mission to serve campus
and the community and answered students’ questions about the fine arts.
College Mentors for Kids is a volunteer
organization that pairs local elementary school students with college student
mentors. Mentors lead after-school activities designed to encourage students
to aspire to higher education. More members of the organization will visit
Little Library in April.
